PASADENA - Dr. Eric Walsh, the city's health director, Thursday told attendees the mayor's annual prayer breakfast that the prescription for a healthy Pasadena has little to do with the medical system.

Walsh, president of the California Academy of Preventive Medicine, said it has more to do with reducing inequality in income and education, offering access to housing and safe environments and caring for children and the elderly, he said.
